9.Mobile Phone Manners
Mobile phones have changed the way we communicate;they have also brought about     problems in phone manners.Gaik Lira,a Singapore-based advice has some advice on     phone manners.
When dealing with missed calls,the person being.called should return the call."Calls  should be returned as soon as possible,and no later than the following day.Anything later  than that,and an apology or a reason for the delay should go with the call."
Text messages should be kept short and to the point.If they go beyond four or five  lines,call or e-mail instead."The use of short forms should be among family members and  friends,never in a business situation."
    Speak in a low voice as if you were talking to someone next to you.If the connection is  bad,don't raise your voice in order to be heard,simply move to another place where the   connection may be better.And if that doesn't work,tell the caller to call you back or offer   to call at a later time.
    When a conversation is cut off due to a bad connection,the person who started the  conversation should call back."It may be inconvenient for the other person to return the  call,especially if it's an unlisted number,or an overseas call."
    When running late for a date or meeting,it is acceptable to text to inform that you'll   be delayed.Messages should be apologetic."A message like‘Sorry.Will be about 30 mi-nutes late due to flight delay'is considered polite and thoughtful."
    Taking calls during meetings is only acceptable if you have informed the chairperson  that you are expecting an urgent call.If you get an unexpected but urgent call,apologize to  those present and offer a quick explanation as to why you have to take that call.Then leave the room to contioue your phone conversation.

分析 本文講述了電話禮貌,手機(jī)雖然給我們帶來了很多好處,帶上也帶來了一些問題,作者給我們提供了一些建議去解決這些問題.

解答 DDDAB
46   D  根據(jù)文章第二 段."Calls  should be returned as soon as possible 可知如果錯(cuò)過了一個(gè)電話,他或她應(yīng)該立刻回電話,故選D.
47   D 根據(jù)文章第三 段The use of short forms should be among family members and  friends,never in a business situation."可知短信的形式應(yīng)該短,但不能在生意場(chǎng)合,ABC短信太短,故選D.
48   D  根據(jù)文章第四 段If the connection is  bad,don't raise your voice in order to be heard,simply move to another place where the   connection may be better可知
如果信號(hào)差,移動(dòng)到一個(gè)信號(hào)好的地方就可以,故選D.
49  A  根據(jù)文章第二 段When dealing with missed calls,the person being.called should return the call."可知回電話是出于禮貌,故選A.
50   B   根據(jù)文章最后段Taking calls during meetings is only acceptable if you have informed the chairperson  that you are expecting an urgent call. 可知在會(huì)議期間除非緊急電話,其余電話需要掛斷,隨后回電話,故選B.

點(diǎn)評(píng) 做閱讀理解時(shí)要快速的瀏覽全文,把握文章主旨大意,帶著問題回到原文,尋找細(xì)節(jié)或概括相應(yīng)的答案,最后要理清作者寫作思路.

17.By the mid-19th century most of Europe was in the first stage of the demographic(人口的) transition.Death rate had decreased,as wars,famines(饑荒) and diseases had; local food shortages were rarer,thanks to better economic organization and transport; public health,medical care and the control of infectious diseases had improved.The population increased rapidly,as Malthus had predicted.Between 1800and 1900Europe's population doubled,to over 400million,whereas that of Asia,further behind in the demographic transition,increased by less than 50%,to about 950million.
But something else was happening there that would have taken Malthus by surprise:as people came to expect to live longer,and better,they started to have fewer children.They realised they no longer needed several babies just to ensure that two or three would survive.And as they moved from country to town,they also found that children were no longer an economic property that could be set to work at an early age,but a responsibility to be fed,housed and (some of them) educated,for years.Worse,with too many children,a mother would find it hard to take and keep a job,to add to the family income.Nor were the young any longer a guarantee against a poor old age:in the new industrial society,they were likelier to go their own way.
Thanks to Europe's newborn limitation,in the past 100years or so its population has risen only 80%,to 730million,and most countries'birth rate is now so low that numbers are unchanging or falling.But their composition is very different from the past:better living standards,health condition and medical treatment are multiplying old heads,even as the number of young ones shrinks.
In contrast,Asia's population over the same time has nearly increased four times,to more than 3.6billion.North America's too has grown almost as fast,but largely thanks to immigration.Africa's has multiplied 5times,and Latin America's nearly sevenfold.
Why these differences?From around 1950,death rate in developing countries also began to fall,and much faster than it ever had in Europe.The knowledge about how to avoid premature death of small children travelled so readily that life expectancy in many poor countries is now not far behind the rich world's.But the attitudes and values that persuade people to have fewer children are taking longer to adjust.
(Note:Answer the questions or complete the statements in NO MORE THAN TEN WORDS.)
78.What prediction did Malthus make?That the population would increase rapidly.
79.Give one reason to explain why people started to have fewer children according to paragraph 2.They no longer needed several babies to ensure their survival./Children were no longer an economic property for working./Children were a responsibility to be fed,housed and educated./Having too many children made a mother hard to work./The young were no longer a guarantee against the old./…
80.Besides medical treatment,better living standards and health condition are the other two factors that contribute to the increasing number of old people.
81.Why has the population in developing countries increased faster than it has in Europe in the last century?Because the death rate in developing countries falls much faster..
